Create classes, constructors, and static variables about devilution HOT 5 CLOSED

Was that fixed already? The commit stream is so fast this week that it drowned me down a bit.

Haha, you are not the only one to be lost in the flurry of commits. Every time I go for lunch, sleep for a few hours, or look away from the screen, @galaxyhaxz, @AJenbo, @JustAnotherGuid and @qndel bump bin exactness by another percent or 5.

It's possible to have static initializer functions without using C++, for example:

static void msgcmd_cpp_init_2(void)  // static initializer function
{
  msgcmd_init_event();
  msgcmd_cleanup_chatcmd_atexit();
}
// switch data segment to CRT$XCU (static constructor list)
#pragma data_seg(".CRT$XCU")
// store a pointer to the init function
void (*msgcmd_init)(void) = msgcmd_cpp_init_2;
// restore normal data segment
#pragma data_seg()

No idea if this works with mingw but I assume it would have to in order to be compatible with static libs.

this was done as part of the move from C++ to C afaik

There really aren't any C++ parts of the code except msgcmd.cpp (which is sitting in a PR) and possibly the Critical section constructors. I thought originally Diablo had used far more CPP then it actually did, hehe.
